Old fuse boxes replaced with a modern, safer switchboard.
If your switchboard still runs on ceramic fuses, it is due for an upgrade. Older boards were not built for today's loads, and faults on them are harder to clear safely.
An upgrade brings the board up to current Australian standards, with room for safety switches and future circuits.
Residual current devices that cut power fast when something goes wrong.
A safety switch monitors the current in a circuit and trips in milliseconds if it leaks somewhere it should not — like through a person.
If your power points are not RCD-protected, they can usually be retrofitted without a full rewire.
New outlets, extra circuits, and light fittings installed or replaced.
Double adapters and long extension leads are a common fire risk. Extra power points where you actually need them solve it properly.
Fittings supplied or customer-supplied — either works.
Swap halogens and fluorescents for LED — less heat, lower bills.
LED downlights use a fraction of the power of the halogens they replace and run cool enough to insulate over.
A whole-house changeover is usually a straightforward day's work.
Supply and install, bedrooms and living areas.
A ceiling fan is the cheapest comfort upgrade in a Hunter summer, and it works alongside air con rather than replacing it.
Existing ceiling points make installation quick; new points can be run where there is none.
Alarms positioned, interconnected and tested to NSW requirements.
NSW rules require working smoke alarms on every level of the home. Photoelectric, interconnected alarms give earlier warning — especially at night.
Good to sort before selling or renting a property out.
Tripping circuits, dead outlets, flickering lights tracked down and fixed.
A circuit that keeps tripping is doing its job — the trick is finding what it is protecting you from.
Fault finding covers everything from a failed fitting to damaged cabling, and ends with the fault fixed rather than reset.
Home wall chargers installed and commissioned.
A dedicated wall charger charges several times faster than a power point and makes the most of off-peak tariffs.
Install includes the dedicated circuit, the mounting, and a walk-through of the unit.
